With its intricate weave of black cherry cola, raspberry, and cedar, the 2024 Sangiovese confirms our hopes about the quality of our youngest Quartz Hill sangiovese vines that dominate this wine. These initial aromas yield to lovely floral notes of dried violet and rosemary. The first taste only adds to its allure, as an energy and poise are revealed that can be missing from a wine that is this open and generous. The bright, lively nature of the 2024 Sangiovese is complemented by a core of red and black fruit beautifully framed by hints of well-loved leather. The fine-grained tannins lend an elegant yet pleasingly assertive structure. While this wine will only grow more complex and nuanced as it ages over the next 5-15 years, be sure to check it out every year or two to fully appreciate what sangiovese grown in our mountain vineyards has to offer.
